Visual headers old vs new

Hi,

 

I am wondering if someone knows how to change the old visual headers for existing reports to be in line with the new created (drilling icons layouts)?

@amitchandak after your reply I have started to look into setings and it seems that you are right.  However to make it possible you have to have checked "Use the modern visual header with updated styling option" (Settings -> Current file -> Report Settings) to automatically change the style of headers from old to modern when saving an "old report". Thank you for guiding me in right dirrection 🙂

Do you mean you used the old version desktop to create the visual? Try recreate the visual with newest version.

@Anonymous  I was talking about changing the visual headers from old to modern when we have a report created long time ago what is still in use. My goal was to avoid manul work with re-creating a visuals. It is now achieved by playing with setings.
